Kanhaiya Wadhawan's North Zone defeated the Ruturaj Gaikwad-led West Zone by 52 runs, as Abid Mushtaq and Nishant Sindhu shared six wickets to deny West a chase of 286 on the final day of the quarter-final. North had scored 251 in the first innings after a late-order 60 from Anshul Kamboj, while Mushtaq took a five-for in the first innings, as his team took a 44-run lead.

Mushtaq stood tall once again with the ball, taking 4-60 in the second innings, while Sindhu took 2-59 in a 52-run win. South Zone will pose a significant threat to North's title hopes.

North East Zone: 15-year-old sensation Vaibhav Sooryavanshi opened up about his recent bowling burst in the opening match of the Duleep Trophy 2026 for East Zone after the tormenting batter switched to a bowling role with perfection, taking two wickets in a three-over spell against North East Zone. The teenage sensation discussed his switch of hats during the match and shared how he felt when bowling and taking two wickets in the second innings of the game, which his team won by an innings and 210 runs on Tuesday. If you ask any batter, they always enjoy bowling. A batter always enjoys bowling and a bowler always enjoys batting equally, Sooryavanshi said in a video posted by BCCI Domestic. Sooryavanshi, who was appointed vice-captain of the zonal side and deputy to Ishan Kishan, opened up about the skipper's decision to bowl him and described himself as a wicket-taker. Opponent team's wickets weren't falling, so I was asked to bowl two or three overs. Ishan Bhaiya felt like he was taking a risk, but he didn't knew that I am a wicket-taker, he added. In the second innings, the Bihar star bowled just three overs but made a significant impact by taking two wickets in a single over. The 15-year-old, who bowls occasional left-arm spin, got Kishan Lyngdoh caught in deep covers with a ball that tempted the batter to go aerial. Three balls later, he claimed another wicket when he nicked behind Southpaw Imliwati Lemtur, allowing Kishan to secure a sharp catch behind. Sooryavanshi spoke on what he had in his mind while bowling the spell. I had only one thing in my mind: that even if I take five wickets, I'm only going to get to bowl three overs only. So (the plan) was to bowl as well as I can and target one spot only and finish my spell well. The Rajasthan Royals batter, who now has four First Class wickets, did not set the stage alight with the bat in his usual style, as he was dismissed for just eight in the only innings his team batted. However, he enjoyed making an impact with the ball. Sooryavanshi spoke on what he had in his mind while bowling the spell. I had only one thing in my mind: that even if I take five wickets, I'm only going to get to bowl three overs only. So (the plan) was to bowl as well as I can and target one spot only and finish my spell well.

Nepal floods highlight Indias vulnerability to Himalayan river disasters
New Delhi, Aug 28:The devastating floods in Nepal have highlighted the vulnerability of the densely populated plains of northern India, particularly Bihar, to disasters originating in the Himalayas, reports international media. Nepals Himalayan rivers feed several major Indian river systems, including the Gandaki and Kosi, besides the Bagmati, Kamla-Balan and other rivers, before flowing into Bihar and eastern Uttar Pradesh. Bihar, one of Indias most flood-prone states, faces a particular risk because much of the catchment area feeding its major north Bihar rivers lies outside the state. According to government estimates, only around 35% of the land supplying water through rainfall, streams and smaller rivers to these river systems is within Bihar, with much of the remaining catchment located in Nepal and Tibet. Wednesdays disaster, reportedly triggered by a glacial collapse that sent a massive debris-filled surge downstream, has underlined the risks posed by events in the Himalayan region. The threat is not limited to the volume of water. Flash floods can carry huge quantities of sediment and debris, raising river beds and putting additional pressure on embankments and flood-control infrastructure. As a result, a disaster that begins in the Himalayan mountains can quickly develop into a major flood threat for communities across the plains of India.
